Health management device and exercise support device
First Claim
1. A health management device comprising:
- pulse wave measuring means for measuring a user'"'"'s pulse waves;
body movement measuring means for measuring said user'"'"'s body movement;
calculating means for obtaining an indicator showing the state of circulation in said user from said pulse waveform when the measured results of said body movement measuring means are below a prespecified value; and
notifying means for notifying said user of said indicator.

Abstract
A health management device is provided, which enables the user himself to make a determination of the quality of his state of health, without the presence of a physician or nurse specialist. However, this device may of course be employed to receive measurement directives from, or provide notification to, a third party. Pulse sensor 4 measures the user'"'"'s fingertip pulse wave. Acceleration sensor calculates an acceleration value from the user'"'"'s body. These outputs are converted to digital signals at sensor interface 6. CPU1 determines whether or not the user is exercising based on the acceleration value read out from sensor interface 6. Based on this result, CPU1 takes up the user'"'"'s pulse waves before and after exercise, and determines the acceleration pulse wave. CPU1 then calculates the amplitude ratio of inflection points included in the acceleration pulse waveform, evaluates the exercise performed by the user based on the pre-exercise and post-exercise amplitude ratios, and displays this result on display device 7.
